I just did this. Get inside the van, down on the floor with a small
curved device like a dental pick. Anything like that will do, but it
needs to be small and should be hooked, though I guess a jeweler's
screwdriver would work.

Looking up from below the bottom edge of the screen, you'll see two
flat areas 1/2 inch long or so that engage the aluminum lip of the
window. Hook these gently and pull them down to disengage the lip while
pulling out. It will come right out. There are no other tabs to mess
with.

They're more resilient than would think, but be careful with the tabs
just because they are small and fairly weak.
